Two weeks ago, Gov. Scott Walker quietly announced the creation of a legal defense fund in response to a John Doe investigation that has resulted in the arrest of several formal Walker staff members. The probe started with allegations of misconduct among his staff while he was the Milwaukee County Executive and has since expanded to investigating his gubernatorial campaign. Because of the probe’s secrecy—hence,“John Doe”—the full extent of its inquiries aren’t known. But the charges already levied against Walker’s former staffers expose the morally vacuous environment that has followed Walker from Milwaukee to the state house.

While many remember the Capitol protests that thrust Madison into the national spotlight one year ago as surrounding the right to collectively bargain, the movement first started as an organized action supporting UW System funding.
For the first time this season, the No. 1 Wisconsin women's hockey team (16-2-2-1 WCHA, 22-2-2 overall) will play back-to-back prime-time games at the Kohl Center. The Badgers will host Bemidji State (14-10-3, 8-10-2) Friday and Saturday night at 7 p.m.
I think it’s great that life is full of unzipped flies, parents walking in on masturbational shenanigans and audible farts during sex. These embarrassing moments are so brutal because they are what people remember you by. You can be the football starter or the swim team captain, but people will still know you as the girl who had her period in the pool during gym class or the guy who shit his pants at Joseph’s sleepover in the seventh grade.
